OK, Leica lenses have something of a legendary quality, but the Elmarit R is as near "bog-standard" as Leica gets.

Hi Dave just popped over from the weather site as you pointed me here. Great image, I want one like that. More info please you mentioned the Elmarit lens, what did you have this attached to? Thanks Alec

The Elmarit series are Leica's middle range of f/2.8 lenses. Unfortunately they've become popular with film-makers (It's why I bought a shed-load a few years ago), so are becoming thin on the ground, and more pricey than they were. Have a look here

Dave, me again. Looked at your other post, you mentioned the ASI1600, if this is so, can you point me to the adapter used to fit the camera. I have a ZWO adapter for a Canon camera, presumably yet ANOTHER adapter is required? Thanks Alec
